it pretty much happened like this...bobby loves new years..we never really get to do anything because of the kids..so he suggested we have a party..movie night upstairs for the kiddos..game night for the adults downstairs. it took a little convincing considering we just got done with christmas..but i'm easily talked into a party. haha. we had a great turn out and had so much fun ringing in the new year with friends! we literally planned this days before, so not a whole lot of thought was put into it..haha..but here's what i came up with. ;)

this was bobby's hat ;)

we picked up two bundt cakes from nothing bundt cakes (red velvet and white chocolate raspberry)

threw up some cheesy decorations..it's new years, you're allowed to...right? ;)

we had no shortage of drinks..they consumed 3 counters haha

i made some treats :)

ella insisted we get necklaces

i picked up so many of these cone hats..i loved them! ;)

ella's tiara

so many people brought food...we were eating all night!

we ordered lots of pizza and breadsticks

we had 2 salads, meatballs, pulled pork, rolls, bean dip, chips, hot wings and treats among many other things

yummy desserts

averie helped keep the kids entertained. she did a great job..the kids love her! the kids were also served individual popcorn bags, m&ms, licorice and juice boxes..and whatever else they wanted ;)

the guys played ping pong and poker

the girls minus carlie who showed up a little later ;)

the kids finally settled down after playing and watched a movie. they all came in their pjs and brought pillows and blankets. a lot of them fell asleep.

countin down!

champagne for all! :)

and we finally played (kinda) a late game of win, lose or draw..with about 5 delirious players. hahaha!
